Bayern Munich (allegedly) still wants Nico Jackson, but now Chelsea wants straight cash for its backup attacker .
Let’s check in on the latest news, which is hot off the presses (as they used to say)…
Sky Sports journalist Kaveh Solhekol (via @iMiaSanMia)
Talks ongoing right now between Chelsea and Bayern about Nicolas Jackson. Chelsea’s position is clear – Jackson is a Chelsea player, if you want him, buy him. Even if Bayern agree to sign Jackson (permanently), Chelsea would still have to sign a replacement. CFC believe the Jackson loan agreement with
Bayern has now been totally revoked. If Bayern believe in Jackson, they have to buy him.

BREAKING: Bayern Munich have made an approach to sign Ademola Lookman from Atalanta. The proposal for the 27-year-old is a loan, including a sizable fee, with an option to buy at a substantial price.
Lookman is exploring his options and remains set on leaving Atalanta as he looks to take an important next step in his career. He has been pursued by Inter this summer but Atalanta do not want to part with him to another club in Italy.
